.DISCUSSION...Weak upper level ridging will keep temperatures
warming and conditions dry through the weekend. A weak shortwave
passing through western Canada Sunday will clip the region elevating
winds to breezy again around the Columbia River Gorge and the
Kittitas Valley Sunday afternoon. The upper level ridge will then
amplify over the region Monday and Tuesday before the next upper
level trough impacts the region midweek with chance of showers and
cooler conditions.
